The "Last of the Summer wine building Co" have been at it again and the Wairakei boys are about to built a new track so watch this space!
The boys have been chipping away in Te Totara Gully and now have it rideable both ways (Yes, you can ride up the hill !)
It's still wet when wet but with the amount of traffic the track is getting people seem to be happy with it. We still have a lot of work to do but will chip at it over the next few months (crews going skiing and on holidays)
We had a bad slip on the tunnel track and have done a realignment which should last a lot longer
We had a stuff up with the email system about a working bee on the Helistar Hill - thanks to those that turned up good to get the metal onto the hill! It's starting to settle down now and is a hell of a lot better to ride up than the old track.
All the signs are in for Outback now, plus the latest maps are up around the place.
Check out the latest Mt bike magazine. We got a great write up on the Rotary Ride. Plus check out the old photo of the National champs in Taupo in 1987. I think that is the gate into the horse paddock tracks are a bit better now days.
We got a load of new posts dropped of to day from Tenon, Big thanks to Mark Taylor for sorting this out, with out them we couldn’t get anywhere near the signage done.
Cheers
The Track Crew
